Malformaţia chistică adenomatoidă congenitală a plămânului – prezentare de caz

Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) is a rare fetal malformation of the lower respiratory tract. After the de­velop­ment and frequent use of the obstetric ultrasound, those lesions can be detected antenatally, which leads to a proper intra­uterine and neonatal management. In this article, we present the case of a term newborn who was diagnosed with congenital cystic adenomatoid of the lower left lung lobe. In evolution, the lung cysts increased in size, occupying almost entirely the left lung. However, the clinical evolution of the newborn was favorable, which made possible the delay of the surgical intervention for an older age.
